Brompton Fold Up food ride on Sunday-NYC

The Brompton is about the coolest folding bicycle around, mainly for its amazing compact ability. NYCE wheels and Bfold Bicycles , who both sell these nifty rides, are hosting the third of their Fold Up food rides on Sunday. The Brommie Yummie.

Here is a press release about it:

Hello! My name is Steven Huang and Brommie Yummie is one of my many ideas of sharing good vibes with the world through the use of my Brompton Folding Bike.

It is about tasting and exploring the world through eating, biking and folding around the city with a Brommie on a leisurely paced 10-15 miles flexible ride with a theme for each ride.

brommie yummie 1.0 ride took place on Sunday 5.23.2010 in NYC and the cuisine theme was British, paying tribute to the Queen & birthplace of the Brommie. Bert from NYCeWheels took some great photos from the ride and Tim from Bikes@Vienna wrote a nice blog post about the ride.
brommie yummie 2.0 ride took place on Sunday 7.18.2010 & Tuesday 7.20.2010 and the cuisine theme was American, celebrating Americaâ€™s birthday & independence.

brommie yummie 3.0 ride will take place on Sunday 9.19.2010 & Tuesday 9.21 and the cuisine theme is â€œEast West Fusionâ€ which means we are in for a melting pot experience.

Vegetarian options are on menu at some spots, but please bring your own & come join the brommie fun! If you have food allergy, then please check & ask before you order & eat?

For those of you who canâ€™t make the ride on Sunday, donâ€™t be sad because I am willing to repeat any of the previous ride on Tuesday after if I get enough interest. Please let me know as soon as possible if you are interested in any of the previous ride so arrangements can be made accordingly.

I donâ€™t know about you, but it is often my experience to see smiles whenever I fold or unfold my Brommie and I smile whenever I eat something Yummie, so please join me to bring out more smiles… by doing the Brommie Yummie Ride

Please contact me at brommieyummie@gmail.com if you would like to join me for the ride. The participation of Brommie owners from Boston, Philly & Washington DC are welcome, the starting point of the ride is near Penn Station, Mega Bus & Bolt Bus drop-off point for your convenience. Please let me know if need traveling tips & suggestions.

=v= I’m a big fan of the locavore movement (eat local), and you can extend the philosophy to bikes (buy local). There are Swift Folders made in Brooklyn and old-school Worksman Cycles folding bikes made in Queens. I admit the Brompton is a pretty hot bike, though.
